London Mayoral Election 2016 Manifesto

London Mayoral Elections

The election of the Mayor of London and 25 members of the Greater London Assembly on Thursday 5 May presents a renewed opportunity for Londoners of all backgrounds to engage with the governing institution for the capital and the elected representatives who hold the Mayor to account.

London is home to almost 40% of the UK’s Muslim population making the 2016 election of the Mayor and Assembly Members of acute importance to Muslim residents in the capital. Housing, health, education, employment, crime and security and the cost of living in the capital, these are all issues that affect London’s diverse communities and Muslim communities in particular given their concentration in the capital.
